hep and masum

Softball masum centralised training this year has been totally different from last year. There's no training allowance, the guys and girls are separated, there's no morning assembly, there's no culture night, there's no daily updates on UM's achievements, the coach also is less strict, the training just doesn't feel like a camp, it's no so organized, we have to use our own transportation to go for friendly games, we have to use our own money to buy medical aids such as plasters, iodine and strappings. We don't have the full softball uniform yet and the jerseys is not enough, we have 14 players but 13 jerseys only. We even have to buy ice ourself. The food is not athlete friendly also, too spicy that even the Malays who love to eat raw chilli find the food too spicy.

Last year the masum centralised training was handled by Sports Centre.This year the masum centralised training is under HEP(Hal Ehwal Pelajar) and not under Sports Centre.

I guess HEP should allow Sports Centre to handle sports instead of HEP showing power and authority in something they don't really know how to handle.

Last year, all the basic sports requirement were given like full uniform, enough jerseys, free ice, first aid kit, strapping, and the whole environment made us feel like a real training camp and closer bond especially with other sport athletes and feel patriotic towards UM when we hear updates and the university's sports achievements.

Separating guys and girls into different colleges also is kinda funny, the coach has to stay far away, the team bonding between the guys team and girls team also almost don't exist and a huge gap in between.

Training with no allowance, no ice, no transportation, no first aid kit, no proper sports attire? It feels like the university is cutting cost, disorganized or they have no understanding in sports management.
